Siemens introduces function point manager
app for protection devices
Requirements-based function expansions for protection devices
designed for use in utilities, industrial plants or infrastructures
License file easily created in seconds
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has launched a
new application for the Siprotec 5 and Siprotec 5 Compact series of protection
devices: In just a few seconds, customers can now generate new license files
for their protection device using a cloud-based app. This allows new device
functions to be enabled very quickly. These functions are added depending on
the type of application of the device, for instance to protect lines and motors
in the distribution network of utilities or industrial plants. Until
now, the ordering process for a license file took almost week.

“For the first time, the Siprotec function point
manager combines expanding the device functions of a protection device with an
end-to-end software solution,” said Robert Klaffus, CEO of Digital Grid at
Siemens Smart Infrastructure. “This gives our customers a fast,
straightforward, cloud-based solution for their protection devices.”
By default, standard devices in the Siprotec
5 Compact series have only a few basic functions. Customers can now expand
their devices precisely and quickly to meet their individual requirements. All
they need is an account in the Siprotec Function Point Manager app. On the one
hand, this enables customers to rapidly adapt replacement devices to their
requirements if needed instead of having to keep different device variations on
hand. On the other hand, device functions can be specified late in the
engineering process and easily added to the protection device using a license
file that can be generated very quickly.
